[Verse] I’m trippin' cause you got me in a haze A gangsta's life ain't built for these days Love or the crew that’s the curse I face Why you always gotta show up in my space [Verse 2] Street rules and passion they don’t mix well In the dark alleys where my secrets dwell Caught between the devil and a siren’s spell Your eyes got stories that I can never tell [Chorus] Gangsta's curse ain't no way out Caught in the game filled with doubt I ride or die under the streetlight But you got me seeing love at midnight [Bridge] Temptation knocking and I’m losing grip Every glance you steal it’s another slip Rules of the street are written in my heart But every beat it takes tears ‘em apart [Verse 3] Your silhouette it dances in my dreams Rough roads ahead it's tougher than it seems Loyalty and love they both scream But destinies ain’t always what they mean [Chorus] Gangsta's curse ain't no way out Caught in the game filled with doubt I ride or die under the streetlight But you got me seeing love at midnight
